Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method for automatically constructing an execution environment for a program, comprising: acquiring, by a first apparatus, at least the program and an execution environment setting file defining the program execution environment parameters from a second apparatus; acquiring, by the first apparatus, parameter conversion identification files of the first apparatus and the second apparatus, each parameter conversion identification file storing a parameter identifier identifying each execution environment parameter defined commonly in the first apparatus and the second apparatus, and an execution environment parameter used in the second apparatus corresponding to each parameter identifier; creating, by the first apparatus, a parameter conversion table converting the execution environment parameter used in the second apparatus into the execution environment parameter for use in the first apparatus, based on the acquired parameter conversion identification files; and converting, by the first apparatus, the execution environment parameter of the execution environment setting file acquired from the second apparatus into the execution environment parameter suitable for the first apparatus to create an execution environment setting file for the first apparatus, on the basis of the parameter conversion table.
2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising: copying the execution environment setting file acquired from the second apparatus into a directory defined in a location identification file with a file name defined in the location identification file, in which the location identification file storing location identification information defined commonly in the first apparatus and the second apparatus, and associated information between directory information for storing the execution environment setting file in the first apparatus and a file name for use in the first apparatus.
3. An apparatus comprising a processor for automatically constructing an execution environment for a program, comprising: means for acquiring, by a first apparatus, at least the program and an execution environment setting file defining the program execution environment parameters from a second apparatus; means for acquiring, by the first apparatus, parameter conversion identification files of the first apparatus and the second apparatus, each parameter conversion identification file storing a parameter identifier identifying each execution environment parameter defined commonly in the first apparatus and the second apparatus, and the execution environment parameter used in the second apparatus corresponding to each parameter identifier; means for creating, by the first apparatus, a parameter conversion table converting the execution environment parameter used in the second apparatus to the execution environment parameter for use in the first apparatus, based on the acquired parameter conversion identification files; and means for converting, by the first apparatus, the execution environment parameter of the execution environment setting file acquired from the second apparatus into the execution environment parameter suitable for the first apparatus to create an execution environment setting file for the first apparatus, on the basis of the parameter conversion table.
4. The apparatus according to claim 3 , further comprising: a location identification file storing location identification information defined commonly in the first apparatus and the second apparatus, and associated information between directory information for storing the parameter conversion identification files in the first apparatus and a file name for use in the first apparatus; and means for copying each parameter conversion identification file acquired from the second apparatus into a directory defined in the location identification file with a file name defined in the location identification file.
5. An apparatus to automatically construct an execution environment for a program, comprising: a first server; a second server: acquiring from the first server, at least the program and an execution environment setting file defining the program execution environment parameters from a second apparatus; acquiring parameter conversion identification files of the first server and the second server, each parameter conversion identification file storing a parameter identifier identifying each execution environment parameter defined commonly in the first server and the second server, and an execution environment parameter used in the second server corresponding to each parameter identifier; creating a parameter conversion table converting the execution environment parameter used in the first server into the execution environment parameter for use in the second server, based on the acquired parameter conversion identification files; and converting the execution environment parameter of the execution environment setting file acquired from the first server into the execution environment parameter suitable for the second server to create an execution environment setting file for the second server, on the basis of the parameter conversion table.
6. A computer readable storage medium recording a program for enabling a computer to perform a method for automatically constructing an execution environment for a program, the method comprising: acquiring, by a first apparatus, at least the program and an execution environment setting file defining the program execution environment parameters from a second apparatus; acquiring, by the first apparatus, parameter conversion identification files of the first apparatus and the second apparatus, each parameter conversion identification file storing a parameter identifier identifying each execution environment parameter defined commonly in the first apparatus and the second apparatus, and an execution environment parameter used in the second apparatus corresponding to each parameter identifier; creating, by the first apparatus, a parameter conversion table converting the execution environment parameter used in the second apparatus into the execution environment parameter for use in the first apparatus, based on the acquired parameter conversion identification files; and converting, by the first apparatus, the execution environment parameter of the execution environment setting file acquired from the second apparatus into the execution environment parameter suitable for the first apparatus to create an execution environment setting file for the first apparatus, on the basis of the parameter conversion table.
